Abstract

Carefully selected ice core data from Greenland can be used to reconstruct an annual proxy North Atlantic oscillation (NAO) index. This index for the past 350 years indicates that the NAO is an intermittent climate oscillation with temporally active (coherent) and passive (incoherent) phases. No indication for a single, persistent, multiannual NAO frequency is found. In active phases, most of the energy is located in the frequency band with periods less than about 15 years. In addition, variability on time scales of 80 to 90 years has been observed since the mid-19th century.

3. A large number of atmospheric and oceanic key quantities show variability potentially linked to the NAO. Examples are the series of cold winters in Europe in the 1960s and the variability in surface pressure in the North Atlantic [
